Summary:
"Louis Zamperini shares his wisdom, values, lessons, secrets, and other insights gleaned from his remarkable experiences in this powerful and inspiring book. Louis Zamperini's struggle to survive the unimaginable -- brought to life in his autobiography Devil at My Heels and in Laura Hillenbrand's book and its film adaptation, Unbroken -- elevated him to his rightful place as one of our greatest heroes. Now, Zamperini reveals the wisdom he learned along his incredible journey. Faced with one misfortune after another -- a plane crash, the shark-filled waters of the Pacific, a brutal Japanese prisoner of war camp -- Zamperini could have given up a thousand times. Instead, he chose to see every hardship as a challenge that he was determined to overcome. Enduring the perils of World War II, Zamperini continued to find adventure at every turn -- from crashing weddings to facing down Frank Sinatra in a fight to getting mixed up in a bank robbery. Until his death at 97 he remained undaunted; happy, sharp-minded, and healthy, and continued to engage life to its fullest. Here, he offers tales that embody his simple, yet essential secrets of success: how his relationship with God, his ever-positive attitude, his constant pursuit of accomplishment -- and a healthy dose of mischief -- have helped him lead a long and fulfilled life, lessons we can all use to transform our own"--Provided by publisher.
